I watched your language arts center video and I want to go watch it again next because I have to start centers this week and it's my first year of teaching. Centers overwhelm me. I'm glad that between you and your team teachers, you have plenty of experience and knowledge about how to set of successful centers. Thank you so much for sharing!!
I love these videos! As a first year teacher who is not the biggest math fan, I have been trying to figure out the perfect to run math centers. This was SO helpful for me! I am totally going to steal some of you and your team teacher’s ideas! 😉
Thank you for the information! This was really helpful! I have just returned to teaching after 6 years (and my prior teaching experience was in a Montessori classroom) and feel like I need to start centers so that I can meet with ability based groups. I am wondering what students do if they finish a center before time is up? What about those who are slower workers, how does that work for them? Thank you!
Thank you for sharing! Things so helpful. I'm teaching 2nd grade after 2 years in Pre-K and I needed some inspiration and to wrap my head around what to do! 😂❤
Thank you so much for sharing these ideas! It has been so hard for me to wrap my head around Math and I feel like I change it every year. I love the flip/flop idea and it makes so much sense to me. Also, my students did Happy Numbers during distance learning last year and they loved it!
Great ideas!!! Maybe I'm confused but you mentioned seeing 2 groups during "meet with teacher" does that mean each group meets with you for 10 minutes? What is the other group who has "meet with teacher " doing while they wait to meet with you?
I was very much interested in your flip flop method for larger group instruction and also your meet with the teacher centre. The first question that came into my mind was how will you accommodate Covid social/physical distancing protocols for centres?
@@EarlyEDventures thank you for answering my question, Having only 3 - 4 students in each group is a great number for the meet with the teacher center. I substitute teach in Saginaw, MI where the main district I sub for is having desks 3 ft apart, hence my distancing question.
I’m curious as to how you are able to map out your entire math curriculum if you are only teaching 3 lessons a week? That’s 8 days a month that are non instructional. 80 days total. Am I missing something? The IFC planner in me is just so curious?!!
